Les Feldick Bible Study

Is today's European union the revived Roman Empire predicted in Scripture?

Yes, the context presents the current movement toward European unity as the very outline of the old Roman Empire, just as Scripture predicted. A secular writer noted these nations once shared the Roman Empire; Daniel and Revelation describe ten horns and a bestial, totalitarian ruler arising from it.

Les teaches that a secular writer described Western Europe's hatreds, problems, and enormous potential, then suggested these nations could form a United States of Europe because they had all been in the Roman Empire together once before. Les uses this to show that what is coming out of Europe now is the very outline of that same old Roman Empire, just exactly as Scripture said. He connects this to Daniel and Revelation: the same language, ten horns, a bestial government, totalitarian power like Nebuchadnezzar, the Medes and Persians, Alexander the Great, and the residue of ancient Rome with a seeming democracy but an absolute ruler. So the whole thing is coming together perfectly, confirming Scripture's accuracy as events approach.
